I, too, have a confession...but it's kind of scary

My gyno thought he could feel some nodules around my ovaries during my annual exam a couple months ago, and wanted them checked out through an ultrasound...

Did the ultrasound a couple weeks ago, got the results back on Friday and the nurse said they were "inconclusive, more tests needed." My heart dropped into my stomach.

I am trying to stay calm. I am trying not to jump to conclusions. And I am trying to stay strong.

But just the idea of ovarian cancer makes my heart race and my thoughts turn to Nora and Miles and the rest of my family. What would they do without me??

My mom has had, and beaten, cancer three times, and that gives me hope that I can too, if indeed these cysts are malignant. But I haven't told her any of this yet. I haven't told much of anyone IRL because I don't want them to worry unless something is definitely wrong...

  • This post just made my heart drop too.

    There is nothing worse than the unknown. When will you have answers?

    The good news is that if it was really prevalent,  they would have come back positive right?

    Your going to be around for a very very long time, so dont you worry about those kiddos and how they would get along with out you, because that is a moot point my friend

    Lots and lots of hugs for you...

    You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
  • Just take it step by step. My mom had cysts for years, and the doctors weren't concerned. One time they had grown, so she followed up on the tests like she was told, it was ovarian cancer, and she immediately went into surgery. They caught it so early she had no other treatment. Just keep up with it right away; I hope all goes well for you, too.

  • You poor thing!  I'll be thinking about and praying for you and hoping it's nothing!

  • ((HUGS)) I will keep you in my thoughts. I too am going through something similar, which we have been trying to figure out for months. My pain is getting worse and worse so it looks like the next step for me is for them to go in and look around. I am hoping it is something simple that can be easily fixed endometriosis for instance, but my doctors are not willing to check anything off the list yet.

    I will keep you in my T&P.

  • Good luck, I will be thinking about you!
